Probiotics wouldn't hurt. You can get them from your vet or use plain yogurt (not sugar free or flavored) to add some to her meal. You can also use a little canned pumpkin to add some fiber. However if the soft stool continues, a fecal exam to rule out any issues such as parasites or GI upset is best.
